Who Should I Start? Amon-Ra St. Brown or Troy Franklin

Friday, November 14, 11:38 PM

Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown has been one of the most productive pass-catchers in the NFL so far this season, hauling in 64 catches for 693 yards and eight touchdowns on 82 targets across nine games played. However, the Lions have a difficult matchup in Week 11 when they travel to Philadelphia to take on the Eagles. Through 10 weeks, Philadelphia's defense is tied with the Denver Broncos for the fewest receiving touchdowns allowed (eight) in the league. Still, St. Brown should have plenty of chances to make his mark in Week 11 as the clear lead weapon in the Detroit passing game. Additionally, the 26-year-old's already sizable target share could get even bigger due to the absence of tight end Sam LaPorta (back). St. Brown profiles as a must-start fantasy wide receiver in Week 11 against Philadelphia.

Denver Broncos wide receiver Troy Franklin caught his fourth touchdown in four weeks in Thursday's 10-7 win over the Las Vegas Raiders. He finished with five catches for 40 yards and a touchdown in Thursday's victory. Broncos head coach Sean Payton has consistently schemed Franklin into the offense as the season has progressed, and Franklin once again paced the team in targets with nine. The 22-year-old continued to have some disappointing plays, one in particular in which he earned a target that could've been a good chunk of yardage, which bounced off his chest to become an interception in the fourth quarter. After finishing with five catches for 40 yards and a touchdown, Franklin certainly rewarded those who trusted him enough as a WR3/ flex option in Week 10 lineups, and he will look to find the end zone again in next Sunday's matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs.
